RF Online

[Zoidmeister]

I honestly think that it's just more humbling playing in some of these WoW servers b/c the servers are like triple the size of the DAoC servers, and you're on average going to find people more hardcore than you'd ever seen in DAoC. And with action 24/7 on these servers (like on blackrock that has a huge aussie population), the people who play 18 hours a day can be productive for 18 hours, not like daoc where after primetime, your productivity (RP farming) goes waaaaaay down.

As someone who needs a gaming fix I can't help but wish that I could actually get back into WoW but it aint' going to happen. DAOC set the standard for PVP by choice with real objectives ... that's what WoW really needs.

WoW PVP servers should be wide open (much like DAOC) with cross horde-alliance guilds ... now that would be fun. Some real shit to fight for in the world itself rather than just honour rank B.S.

Also if there was a real endgame in WoW less people would complain about raid grind ... at least there would actually being a point to being decked out in purples other than serving epeen.

No hijack intended ... RF online just might be the only hype or hope for a good game till Warhammer.

Just saying that having beaten a group like that before, I _KNOW_ it's not just a gear game.

Once the BG's came out I believed that changed on a lot of severs. 90% of PvP is instanced these days. I'm not saying it can not be done, but having twinked toons wont hurt (not low lvl like 19/29 those are obvious.) Like Zoid said, It would be outstanding if Blizzard added a reason to PvP outside. It's a lot easier to get the drop on someone or mend outside when you have less limted landscape.

If you participate in server fight nights you better bring it. As an added bonus, servers like Gurubashi have 4 horde guilds that use an effective DKP system and a lot of blue will not cut it. I will always argue WoW is not a 'small guild' friendly game and I dislike that. I do enjoy WoW for what it is, especially in a time where addictive MMO's are hard to come buy for me.

Kill order is not not the problem. You either focus the priest and he dies, giving the other team 3 DPS and 1 healer and hope they do not focus down your warrior or mage. Or focus a DPS class (like a group that knows what the fuck they are doing) CCing healers and still DPSing the fuck out of the rest of the group. Believe it or not their are times you can not heal through DPS if everyone can play and one teams owns the gear.

You can run a buff and mining macro while AFK (overnight or while at work). You can make around 200,000+ a mining stint. Plus after you have enough money to burn on buffs you can macro them.

That ruins it for me, no interest in playing a game where people macro, as it only perpetuates more macro. I'd rather play a game that you actually, ya know, play? And is fun in its own right.

You bring up a very valid point Candide. There is an argument to be made that even he script language UI for these games are way too powerful, creating macrolike functions.

Anything you do can be macroed. The only difference is the difficulty involved.

i dont mind macros for trade skills etc

ya that it does they said it was supposed to be out by the end of the year

i'm fearful it'll end up like sb tho with alot of bugs and crashing and other bullshit

but i do like that it is skill based you can loot the corpses of your enemies and it's skill based so no lvling from 1-50+ it's supposed to have navel battles fighting on horses etc.

the downside is it is very fps'ish it has crosshairs in center screen you use to aim with spells and melee and there is friendly fire so if melee gets in the way of his mage buddies target he's gonna be toasty =/
